A convex ostomy pouch, such as the Convatec 416777 Esteem Synergy Plus 6" Opaque Closed Pouch with Filter, features a firm, curved baseplate designed to gently press around the stoma. This convex shape encourages the stoma to protrude, improving the seal and reducing leakage—especially beneficial for individuals with flat or retracted stomas. The built-in filter helps minimize odors and gas buildup.
